Go where you grow

IRON ROSE WOMEN’S SHOOTING CLUB™

IRON ROSE WOMEN’S SHOOTING CLUB is a women-led firearms education community that began at MANCHESTER FIRING LINE and has grown into a nationwide movement.

Built on the belief that women thrive when they learn together, Iron Rose Women’s Shooting Club creates structured opportunities for connection, training, and leadership development through monthly and annual events — both in person and online:

IN-PERSON:
• Monthly Women’s Safety Seminars
• Club Nights and Course Nights
• The annual Rise-Together Weekend

ONLINE:
• A private online community for members of Iron Rose Women’s Shooting Club, known as the Rose Garden

From local events to national collaboration, Iron Rose Women’s Shooting Club exists to help women Go Where You Grow™.

In 2016, TerryAnn Bowen, co-owner of Manchester Firing Line, earned the moniker “Iron Rose” from her team for her unique blend of kindness and strength as a leader. Bringing the perspective of a brand-new female shooter into the industry, she recognized the need for a dynamic, women-focused community where women could find guidance, camaraderie, and structured growth in a welcoming, non-intimidating environment.

And so, the Iron Rose Women’s Shooting Club was born, a community built to foster connection, build confidence, and strengthen shooting skills. TerryAnn’s passion for safety and education continues to shape every aspect of the club, ensuring women feel comfortable as they learn and grow at every stage of their firearm journey.

Here’s what the Iron Rose Women’s Shooting Club offers:

Whether you’re a seasoned shooter or a newcomer, the Iron Rose Women’s Shooting Club invites you to attend our empowering community.
